Women workers were often preferred for certain roles due to stereotypes around their ability to perform repetitive tasks with precision, perceived lower wage expectations, and the belief that they posed less risk of unionizing or creating labor disputes compared to male workers. Additionally, the traditional view that women were better suited for certain types of jobs, such as textile work or clerical roles, influenced employer preferences.
Employers could pay women and children less.
Children were preferred because they were manageable, cheaper and less likely to go on a strike.

More men were brought from Africa as slaves than women. But some plantation owners preferred women as the harder workers. The 'great gang' or first gang of slaves was made up of the strongest workers. Sometimes women outnumbered men in the great gang. They did all the heavy fieldwork, such as digging and cutting cane. The members of the second gang were not as strong as those of the great gang. Often the slaves in this gang were the teenagers, the old and the sickly. They would do the less demanding fieldwork.
